I was outside for gym class my sophomore year of high school so we didn't hear the announcement over the loud speaker system. When I got back in the building, I changed into my regular clothes and headed to my Ancient History class where we were having a test.
Our teacher told us we'd be having the test in a room that was fitted with a TV and I found myself a bit confused by that since I didn't know what had happened. When I first saw the news footage, I thought I was watching an action-adventure film and I remember making an off-hand remark to my teacher about that.
She explained what had happened, I nodded because I still wasn't sure what to make of it all. I inevitably spent the whole day sitting in the Drama Lecture Hall watching the footage over and over again on a huge projection screen because none of my teachers thought we'd be able to concentrate on learning.
